A: Electric cars work by using a battery to store electrical energy that powers an electric motor. This motor converts the energy to propel the car's wheels. Electric cars do not rely on burning fuel to generate power. Instead, they capture and store energy through charging and regenerative braking.

A: Charging times depend on a few factors, including the charging equipment you use, the battery’s initial charge level, and the level you’re after.

A: Electric car charging costs vary depending on where you live and when you charge. However, driving a fully electric car can deliver significant savings because electric charging typically costs less than petrol or diesel.

A: In many markets, Volvo car drivers enjoy discounts on public charging within partner networks.

A: We recommend a Volvo Cars wallbox. It delivers faster, more efficient charging than a regular wall socket.
Wallboxes have an integrated cable holder and a 5-metre charging cable with a Type 2 socket (IEC 62196), making it compatible with all fully electric Volvo cars.
Have your wallbox installed indoors or outdoors. It's water resistant, and you can purchase a pedestal to install the wallbox where a wall surface isn't available.
Connect to the wallbox via Wi-Fi to see charging status, schedule charging, and more using your smartphone, computer or tablet.
Dynamic LED lighting on the front of the wallbox uses different colours to help you check your charging status at a glance.
